The women of comedy are making the big bucks!

Forbes released their 2017 list of World’s Highest-Paid TV Actresses and Modern Family star Sofia Vergara is the top earner, pulling in a whopping $41.5 million before taxes. The website points out that this is largely due to the actress' endorsement deals.

The Big Bang Theory's Kaley Cuoco is second on the list, garnering $26 million.

"I think about the little girls out there who watch women be the architect for their own stories and write their own stories and produce them and act in them, and take the power back, and be motivated by motivating them," Witherspoon said of the award-winning show. "To have four women nominated for one show is pretty extraordinary."
